Silk worms can produce silk.
Not news.
That doesn't make KBLB a successful business.
And, it doesn't refute the literature pointing out the problems with their approach... which problems are not AMSilk's creation, but FACTS quoted in the articles, which are not AMSilk's publications, but peer reviewed articles they've quoted.
AMSilk was HONEST in referencing the scientific literature while conducting a survey of the field... that was equally as honest in addressing the issues they face in working on the approach they've taken, as it was in addressing problems that KBLB has found it convenient to not mention. It's only KBLB that dissembles about the FACTS... while denying there's any problems.
The references to the peer reviewed literature are included. Look them up. The effort in denial of the facts re the literature... is telling. If KBLB could refute the content... they would... but, since they can't ?
That leaves them instead opting to posture as "successfully refuting" arguments no one is bothering with making.
No one said you can't make recombinant worms... that also make silk.
KBLB is in denial about problems... just like they've always been.
And, KBLB hasn't ever admitted there WERE problems, much less proven they have overcome them, or devised a method for creating a product... that doesn't suffer from all of the weaknesses inherent in their approach.
The key issue there... is the dishonest approach.
Can you trust them ?
You can't trust them to be honest about the science.
You can't trust them to be honest about the problems.
You can't trust them to be honest... period.
